I got a dxf (AC1006) from a client which is not readable by QCad 3 RC5 ("check file format...") but is perfectly shown by QCad 2.2; opening in QCad 2.2, saving there and re-opening in QCad 3 does the trick.

If you still have the original (not readable) file, please send it to us via e-mail or attach it to this report if possible. Thanks.

I sent the (private) file via mail.

Thanks. The file has an invalid DXF version (leading spaces):

  9
$ACADVER
  1
  AC1006

Should be:

  9
$ACADVER
  1
AC1006

Funny that this should throw Teigha off but it does :(
